About Short Tales
The “Short Tales for Children” program is an annual collaboration between Creative Greensboro and UNCG Theatre. Featuring short, original plays written by members of the Greensboro Playwrights Forum, the performance will be directed by UNCG Theatre Education students under the mentorship of Performing Arts Coordinator, Todd Fisher and UNCG professor Joshua Purvis. “Short Tales” provides young actors a fun environment to explore theatre, supported by college students who are receiving real world experience in theatre education for children.
